Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
Steven Seagal needed a new approach to his standard head-busting heroics, so he teamed up with Keenen Ivory Wayans for this routine 1996 action flick. This time stone-faced Steve plays Los Angeles homicide detective Jack Cole, newly transplanted from New York and teamed up with Jim Campbell (Wayans). They're assigned to track down "The Family Man," a serial killer who earned his nickname by crucifying entire families and leaving religious graffiti as his calling card. The case heats up when the latest victim turns out to be Cole's ex-wife, and Cole is considered a primary suspect. That makes Seagal get really mad--you don't wanna get Seagal too upset, y'know--but he still has time to quote Buddhist wisdom and crack wise with Wayans, who plays it relatively straight as the practical half of this partnership. It's typical Seagal stuff all the way, with obligatory fight scenes every 10 minutes or so, but Seagal fans will enjoy it, and Brian Cox makes a suitably hissable villain. --Jeff Shannon

3 out of 5 stars Some Twists on a Familiar Formula .......2007-03-07

This is not a bad Steven Seagal film. The plot is actually intriguing but did not live up to its potential due to some ineffective and uneven direction and choppy editing. The film works better as a standard detective drama forgoing anticipation of Seagal's usual physical antics.

5 out of 5 stars Really enjoyed this movie!.......2006-03-23

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie as I do most of Steven Seagal's. As with any other actor, some movies are better than others. This was one of the ones I especially liked. I'll still be buying his movies as they come out on DVD.

5 out of 5 stars Great.......2006-02-25

The movie came in a very timley manner. Im currently out in Iraq now and Amazon has really done a lot for all of us.

3 out of 5 stars "Now get your ugly white a$$ outta here......".......2005-10-07

Typical Seagal fare, in which thick leather (and even alligator skin) trench coats replace the need for a decent plot. Seagal's paunch is ever present, and his penchant for food is made clear when during one scene he busts in on a private lunch meeting and starts sampling what appear to be enchiladas. At least its good to see Seagal poking fun at his own image, as one villain asks him to take his 'sensitive pony tail and sissy beads' and leave the restaurant. Said villain is met with a swift hand to the throat in response to this statement of course, but you can only ask Seagal to expose his sensitivities so far. One of the more humorous moments include the main villain threatening Seagal in a police station packed with officers, of all places, and Master Steven responding to this by telling the foe to get his 'ugly white a$$' out of the station. This unprecedented outburst of racial indignation is amusing if at all for the fact that Seagal himself is a white man. Just unreal. Look, this is a Seagal film, what do you need to know? He breaks 50 lbs of human bone via various joint locks, he has a pony tail, he is an agent of a state/federal department of some type. Oh yes, and he has a black partner, a situation that seems to be the norm in Seagal films. Prepare to laugh at the absurdity.

4 out of 5 stars Dj Defprince! opinion on the glimmer man.......2005-08-02

If you're looking for high pace serious action with a fair amount of comedy then this is the movie you should purchase.
Steven seagal is again at his best with an even talented and creative Keenan Ivory Wayans ( A low down dirty shame ).These two combined together in one movie equals a steal of a deal, It's like geting two movies for the price of one.
Trust me this movie is the bomb.
